Hello rebal15,

Thank you for your post. First of all let me answer you what I know: 1 zPIV = 1 PIVX. A zPIV is just a PIVX anonymized. Furthermore zPIV can't stake. From what I understand, once a pivx is converted to a zpiv it get in a pool ready to be spend by anyone who has feeded the pool earlier. You can convert pivx to zpiv for a flat fee of 0.01 by note (as it is only possible to convert pivx by 1,5,10,50,100,500,1000,5000 notes, meaning that if you convert 2 pivx in zpiv you pay 0.02 fee (1+1) but equally you pay 0.02 fee to convert 2000 pivx to zpiv (1000+1000).

No Zdex will be used to convert first btc and then other alts to pivx/zpiv and may involved masternodes.

For you question about privacy and dev involvement I think you ask a very important question which I can't answer. I think that pivx teams should reinforce more technical explanation concerning pivx. It is nice to have main stream informations but neglecting high tech is a little mistake (like letting this thread alone ).


Hi this is a nice functionality. However I hope it is possible to deactivate it as where are the prices coming from (privacy)?

Personally it is the iOS wallet that I am waiting for. Nothing is more boring that show how powerful and useful pivx is to someone and then be stoped once the potential new users get his iphone out to look for the wallet... and having to answer not yet available... since when btw?   

It asks the question if the ivory tower of discord/slack isn't too isolating...

I fully know that the honesty and safety of the chain are the most important factors long term... however is the budget return on investment checked? This iOS wallet for example start to smell a f35like program... and what about the core update? It's 0.15 already...
